I want to apologize for a not very flattering comment because of using Dawn in the recipe, however I substituted it with a sal suds and the result swept me out of my feet - dishes turned out to be incredibly shiny!!! This is the formula I was looking for!!! Thanks a lot!!!
Looking forward to trying this. To keep it really mostly natural, Castile soap could be used in place of the dawn dish soap. Dawn is one of the most toxic dish soaps on the shelf 😬
Yes, thank you for mentioning this. I was curious why Dawn was considered "all natural" in this video when it is said to be one of the most toxic dish soaps. Any recommendations on Castile soaps out there?
🙏🏾 I’ve been praying for dishwashing liquid recipes and dishwasher soap recipes. You’re my answer to my prayers today. I humbly thank you. As a child I spent summers on my grandparents farm without indoor plumbing or electricity. Those were the best days of my life! 10:01 🙏🏾
In a chemistry standpoint you want to leave out the the citric acid, the name in itself is an acid all the other chemicals are a base or (alkaline). If you mix an acid with a base all you are doing is neutralizing the mixture to a more neutral PH level thus the mixture will not work as well.
It will not do as well of a job that you intended it to do if you have alkaline mixed with an acid. If you want it to remove hard water stains then keep them separated, for instance you can put the citric acid inside the detergent door and the homemade detergent on outside to keep them separated, the alkaline detergent will be drained before the door opens meaning the citric acid will react at its full strength, you can also add vinegar to the rinse aid reservoir instead of using (Jet Dry) as well. I hope you are using citric acid made from citrus instead of the kind made from mold, that’s right I said mold, if you don’t believe me google it, (Is citric acid made from mold). Hope this helps you out.

Well I have a family of seven so what is your point? my comment is to improve on her and other viewers experience in making dish detergent , I’m just trying help people not waste their money by using it the wrong way and to tweak the ingredients to maximize savings in their pockets. Don’t get your panties in a bunch while trying to be a keyboard warrior. The fact that you said she has a family of eight is anecdotal has nothing to do with science, please comment and tell me how I’m wrong with “facts” not feelings.
Made this, and used Castile soap in place of Dawn and it did work well!! I didn’t have any powder left behind. I’m interested in the laundry soap, recipe! Thanks for the tip on vinegar too! 🤍
Thank you for this comment. I do not use any normal cleaning products including dawn. I only use liquid castile soap from Dr. Bronners myself so was wondering
Omg Thank you for this video. I'm a single mother of 5 so i'm always running out of stuff one of them being dishwasher detergent. This is very helpful tok me because it would definitely save me money and last longer. So thank you again for this video. I am definitely doing this.
This is an amazing recipe. The Dawn is very necessary as well to give it an extra oomph. If I do ever try this I’ll be adding a little citrus essential oil. Love scented stuff.
Going to make this since we are on our last pods and am really looking on ways to save as well as make our home more natural. I would love to know if you have a laundry soap recipe? Thank you and blessings 💗
Does anyone know if these ingredients are septic and dishwasher safe? I heard you are not supposed to use vinegar in a front load washing machine because it can ruin the seals....I don't know if the vinegar or citric acid can degrade any of the seals in a dishwasher. It's not very cost effective if you have to replace a dishwasher or if you have a septic problem.
I use dawn in mine &boy are you right bout not using a lot.. lol I've had soap spilling out every where.. good video I have all this for washing powders might try this for dishes .
What is the purpose of the sea salt? I used a similar recipe and even though I had vinegar in the rinse compartment, I still got a white film all over my dishes. I was going to leave the salt out of the recipe altogether. Would that work?
Great video as always , Annie. While I am very stocked on all our household needs, this is a direction I haven't ventured into yet. Very informative. Thankyou for sharing, love from Australia xxx. P.s. touching on previous video conversations, our nightly news , on t.v. last night, spoke of severe fresh produce shortages and extremely high prices on produce to come soon. Due to supply and also massive flooding we've experienced here in Australia. Maybe this mama's not so crazy after all😉. Anyhow, thanks for being a kindred spirit in these crazy times we're in!💞💞
People may call us crazy, Lisa, but I'd rather be crazy than unprepared, right!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ I really like making many of our homemade cleaners and bath & body products. Not only is it more affordable but it's way cleaner/more all-natural than store-bought stuff. Better for our bodies 🙂
After having Covid in November I lost my taste and smell. For the most part I still don’t have either back yet. At times when I can smell. I smell a horrible chemical. I used Irish spring for years, can’t even stand the chemical smell it leaves. That said dishwasher soap is also one of those smells I can’t take. I’m glad you made this video! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing. My friend and I were just talking about finding a recipe like this. Ok to use if on a septic tank. Seems like ok, know ingredients better than commercial stuff.
My first hubby used to make septic tanks for his job and he had me pour our expired/sour milk down our kitchen sink to add beneficial flora to the septic tank and I’ve never had a problem with or had to have work done on my septic system…just saying 😉
I made your cheesey chicken and your butter cookies last night and my granddaughter adreiona said to tell you that you have the best recipes she watches you all the time
Excited to try this! Ordered the ingredients. Even the Cascade pods don’t work well in our dishwasher so I’m hoping this will go better and be better for us!
It's for extra cleaning power but you can substitute this for any dish soap that you prefer. I know Dawn is not all-natural but I don't feel bad using it because it's only three drops☺️
If you're using citric acid why can't you make pods? It would seem to me you could just put some water in it a little bit of water in it until it's holds together and then put it in a silicone Trey and it should harden I don't know I'm new at this stuff so I'm not sure. What's your guess about that
Hi Debbie. I think any silica packets will do. We bought ours off of Amazon last year. I use them for storing flours and grains. Also, when we put our pasta in glass jars I use a silica packet in each one to absorb moisture so I don't lose any food. I can also throw them into baking soda or washing soda just to cut down on clumping.
Dawn dish soap natural? Lol This sounded fine to me and I'm right with you on your goals you stated, but I haven't used Dawn due to its ingredients for a very long time! I wonder if a liquid castille soap would work or at least a more natural or earth conscious brand like Ecover of liquid dishsoap would work just as well?
It worked but not great. Dishes were slippery and more than usual still dirty. Added 1/4th cup of amount left with Borex. Much better but think I only need 1 tablespoon instead of 2. Will try and no dawn needed. The water may make a difference? Thanks
No it won’t, the vinegar will be diluted in the water, also the water maybe naturally alkaline so adding acid will only neutralize the PH of the water. It’s always best to test the PH of your water to know if you should be using chemicals with a higher or lower PH, knowing this will definitely prolong the life of your dishwasher and washing machine.
R there any disadvantage of these ingredients as far as machine is concerned. I am more worried about dishwasher machine as they r quite expensive in our country. Specially venigar. Secondly is salt still a neccissity if water is already soft enough. Plz advice.
Thanks for recipe citric acid is key. I ran out. However, I used Castile natural no due no chemical soap as dawn is blue dye and chemicals.! The lye in Castile gets saponified. Dawn cuts grease but so does vinegar or citric acid. Everythime I make a video of products youtube makes me put a disclaimer on it during I don't work for the companies nor do I get paid to endorse. Just a heads up their clamping down. I'm same way no chemicals. Essential oils are good in soy candles their not inflammatory to our health
Why do you add the dawn soap to an all natural soap? Also when I used this why are all of my dishes coming out with a white residue all over them? It won’t even come off with another wash. I also added vinegar to the machine. How do I make natural cleaner without having the white residue
I have all the ingredients, and just appreciate this. However, I find that the ingredients' cost does add up, almost feels like Im not saving anything. The borax has gone up by several dollars, and the citric acid is also expensive. So, I don't agree that making this is necessarily saving money. I do like this because it is safer and natural.
I omitted the citric acid because of what someone commented, (that the acid neutralizes the base products) and also because it's horrendously expensive in N.Z... I just paused the machine to add a coffee mug and the dishes look super sparkly!! No borax in this recipe by the way.....
Could I use borax to replace the washing soda? Right. now I have everything but the washing soda and would like to give it a try before I purchase the washing soda.
@@brendaarcher7213 We have never used anything besides the washing soda because this is an essential ingredient from what we understand. So this recipe is what we stick to. The washing soda is fairly inexpensive for the box.
@@ethanbrown7198 Thanks, I used Kosher Salt, I believe. Never again will I try and make my own dish detergent. It left a horrible foggy coating all over my dishes. Was really hard to get it off. UGh.....
Hi hon.. thx so much for this recipe! I would love ur laundry soap recipe! And any others u wanna share 🥰 I love all ur videos! Unrelated ques...Do u have a preference on seeds that u buy ? Like brand. I need to start growing things ( have small space) hope u have a blessed night.. luv and hugs.🥰
I may be wrong but this doesn’t seem cheaper 🤔. I’d be using $7 worth of citric acid, and my cascade liquid detergent is $7, probably lasting the same amount of time.

Do you think the Dawn is a must or can you sub Castile soap? I try to avoid Dawn as it is rated a “D” from EWG for several of the ingredients
I would think that Castile soap would work okay. Just use very little of it (3 drops) because that suds well too!
@@anniemcelroy2812 thanks! Will give it a try!
Well, dawn isn't natural at all! Doesn't that deplete the entire idea of natural dish soap?

Other recipies use half and half of those.
Thanks for the recipe! Yes, more cleaner videos, please!

This may have already been answered, but why Dawn soap? Is it for a nice smell? For extra "cleaning" power?
It's for extra cleaning power but you can substitute this for any dish soap that you prefer. I know Dawn is not all-natural but I don't feel bad using it because it's only three drops☺️
I always use free and clear dish soaps if i were to use any at all, but my go-to is any castile
If you're using citric acid why can't you make pods? It would seem to me you could just put some water in it a little bit of water in it until it's holds together and then put it in a silicone Trey and it should harden I don't know I'm new at this stuff so I'm not sure. What's your guess about that

It’s always best to test the PH of your water to know if you should be using chemicals with a higher or lower PH, knowing this will definitely prolong the life of your dishwasher and washing machine.
Can you use a descaler product like in commercial coffee machines
Is there an alternative to the dawn dish soap? It's not considered a clean ingredient.
Castile soap
The citric acid mixed with baking soda will make a VERY HARD MIX
Love it! I’ll have to make this!
❤️❤️❤️
The plastic on the pods becomes micro plastic and enters the environment. This is becoming a problem and getting into the food chain.
Never thought of that, great point and definitely a motivator!
And the plastic wrecks dishwashers too.

Hi thank you gor this diy can i use epsom salt instead ? Thats all i have
I used it and it's fine!
Hi, Can I use table salt instead of sea salt?
A coarse canning salt may be better but if you only have table salt it should be fine.
Could you use that to wash dishes by hand.
I would just use Dawn or Castile soap if you want to wash by hand
Washing soda is very rough on skin due to its pH! Wear gloves is the recommendation on the box!
Do you have a liquid dishwasher recipe. I have a portable countertop dishwasher it doesn't work well with powder. Please & thank you
When don't you just dilute it with a bit of warm water before adding?
Hello, where do you add the vinegar in your dishwasher?
In the rinse agent compartment. Sometimes called the Jet-Dry compartment.
Does it have to be Sea Salt? Can it be just regular table salt? Because isn't the Sea Salt expensive?

I have heard dawn is toxic. Is there a better option than Dawn?
Can anyone help me locate the laundry detergent recipe she spoke about?? I cant seem to find it on their page
Thank you!
good info.
do you have to use dawn soap or could you use your homemade liquid dish soap?
Like also mentioned in this topic, Dawn is toxic... so it is better to use a few drops of Castile soap, like from Bronners etc...
I may be wrong but this doesn’t seem cheaper 🤔. I’d be using $7 worth of citric acid, and my cascade liquid detergent is $7, probably lasting the same amount of time.
I would say it probably would last 3 times as longer, if not more
Is it important to add washing soda?

Not in small amounts.
